(P L) The 47th OAS General Assembly, which concludes today in Cancún, has gone from interference to irrelevance in attempts to pass a resolution against Venezuela, the editorial of the Mexican daily La Jornada says today.

The report says that everything indicates that the attempt led by the United States and Mexico, along with other Latin American countries will fail, to impose a resolution in which they request to annul the call to a Constituent Assembly, ‘among other interfering demands’ to the government of President Nicolas Mature.
Such illegitimate efforts indicate that the aforementioned nations, as well as the OAS Secretary General, the Uruguayan Luis Almagro, have decided to sacrifice the principles of international legality and the viability of the Pan American organization itself, underlined the editorial.

The U.S. has sided with the Venezuelan opposition in the wake of Maduro’s call for a national constituent assembly.

U.S. Senators are gearing up to intervene in Venezuela, according to Reuters report published Wednesday. The group of bipartisan senators is looking to push through legislation which would see US$10 million sent to the country as humanitarian aid, as well as impose new sanctions, intelligence reports and instructing the U.S. State Department to lead a regional effort to help ease the ongoing unrest in the South American country.

The Bolivarian government has repeatedly called for talks with the splintered right-wing opposition.

The United Nations Thursday called on the Venezuelan government and opposition forces to make a sincere commitment to dialogue to resolve differences in the country, something President Nicolas Maduro has been advocating long before the right-wing left the Vatican-sponsored talks in January.
